Z701920Growth and Lactogenic Hormones: Neuroimmune Biology Vol. 2 For seventy years evidence has accumulated documenting the existence of a bi-directional communication network between growth hormone and the immune system. In the past twenty years there has been a tremendous proliferation of information detailing the workings of the growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor axis. A multitude of growth factors and binding proteins have been identified. More evidence supporting the important role of the growth hormone IGF network in the well functioning of the normal immune system has been documented. The challenge today is not to prove, but to understand, the neuroimmune regulatory role of GLH in its entire complexity.

Z702544Guide to Analysis of DNA Microarray Data, 2nd ed. Written for those who don't have any special training in data analysis and statistics, this book begins where DNA array equipment leaves off: the image produced by the microarray. The text deals with the questions that arise starting at this point, providing an introduction to microarray technology, then moving on to image analysis, data analysis, cluster analysis, and beyond. This book offers practitioners reliable information using concrete examples and a clear style. This edition features entirely new chapters on Image analysis; Experiment design; Automated analysis, integrated analysis, and systems biology; Interpretation of results .

 Z285803Guide to Materials Characterization and Chemical Analysis, 2nd ed. Written both for the novice and for the experienced scientist, this miniature encyclopedia concisely describes over one hundred materials methodologies, including evaluation, chemical analysis, and physical testing techniques. Each technique is presented in terms of its use, sample requirements, and the engineering principles behind its methodology. Real life industrial and academic applications are also described to give the reader an understanding of the significance and utilization of technique. There is also a discussion of the limitations of each technique.
